About Tarim Poplar Forest Park
Autumn colour is the familiar image, but spring and summer reveal the living woodland in green. The Qiaoyang River area and sightseeing railway offer different perspectives on the trees. Treat the forest as more than a photo backdrop: the contrast between mature trees, new growth and weathered trunks is central to the visit.
What to look for
- Living desert poplars contrast with the twisted forms of older dead trees.
- The Qiaoyang River and sightseeing railway add water and moving views to the forest route.
Location & getting there
Getting to Tarim Poplar Forest Park
Travel from Luntai toward the Tarim Poplar Forest Scenic Area beside the desert highway. Confirm the park’s seasonal opening and railway operation before the drive; its sightseeing train is an internal attraction, not a transport connection from Luntai.
